Media Review for January 17, 2020
The essence of the reforms being carried out in the country, an agreement during the election process, an increase in the number of divorces and ways to solve this problem are topics of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes that 2019 was remembered as a year of deep reforms, personnel and structural changes and the implementation of the social package.
As for the tasks, this is the completion and commissioning of the Southern Gas Corridor in 2020, the construction of alternative energy stations - solar and wind, the provision of housing for the families of martyrs and veterans of Karabakh, and the implementation of social and infrastructural projects.
The website Modern.az writes about the election “bidding and agreements”. Azerbaijan is a small country, and therefore it is always clear to everyone who is going to parliament for the sake of benefits, and who is for the deputy’s seat.
The method of recalling a candidate for another is retained. There is no image-maker institute in Azerbaijan. The candidate collects his relatives during the campaign around.
There is nothing illegal in the fact that the candidates agree. At the same time, in all countries there is a process of buying seats in parliament. Personal integrity is essential for fair participation in parliamentary elections.
The Bizimyol.info website writes about an increase in the number of divorces, so the process of marriage must be complicated, said lawyer Farhad Mehdiyev. According to him, in most cases, the reason for divorce is treason, lack of understanding and unfulfilled expectations.
Now a new term is in fashion - online betrayal, that is, social networks.
And the institution of the family itself has changed. Domestic violence is now a thing that very few people endure.
The lawyer believes that a young person who wants to marry must meet with a psychologist, and he must fully understand what a family is and the responsibility for it.

On a brisk November evening, the residents of Baku gathered along the waterfront of the Caspian Sea, stunned by what appeared to be the washed-up body of a colossal whale. At 16 meters long, the creature’s seemingly lifeless form and pungent odor left many convinced they were witnessing an ecological tragedy. By that night, however, the mysterious visitor had departed, loaded onto a cargo platform and whisked away to the airport.
